Core i5-1155G7 vs FX-8320E comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-1155G7 is faster than the FX-8320E. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the FX-8320E in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the FX-8320E has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-1155G7. A Core i5-1155G7 CPU outputs less heat than a FX-8320E CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i5-1155G7 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
